The gorgeous product of a 4-year restoration with a myriad of choice modifications, this custom 1969 Volkswagen Beetle was completed in 2023 by Burnett's Auto Repair and Motorsports in Clovis, California. Repainted in Stonewashed Blue Metallic paint, the Beetle's body, fenders and doors were bead blasted and electrostatically primed in preparation for paint. The powder coated chassis features Wolfsburg West replacement floor pans and a reinforced clutch tube. Underneath the Beetle's Gray vinyl interior with heated bucket seats and the handsome salt-and-pepper tweed carpeting, Dynamat sound deadening was mounted throughout the passenger compartment for a quiet and comfortable ride under any conditions. The upgraded electrical system includes a blade-style replacement fuse box and convenient LED lighting added below the dashboard and inside the glovebox. An aftermarket 3-spoke steering wheel, Iditit tilt steering column, and new Vintage USA gauges greet the driver while a Retrosound Motor 4 stereo unit delivers the tunes.

Fully upgraded mechanicals include the 2,110cc flat 4-cylinder engine, equipped with an EMPI 82mm stroker crankshaft and rods, plus 90.5mm pistons and cylinders and EMPI GTV-2 Stage 1 wedge port cylinder heads with 40mm intake and 35.5mm exhaust valves, actuated by a Steve Long Racing camshaft and lifters. Lubrication is via a full-flow oil system with electric cooling fan and CB Performance oil pump. Dual Weber 44 IDF carburetors with EMPI linkage feed the port-matched intake with fuel delivered by an electric pump and spark provided by an MSD ignition system. Spent gases are removed by a stainless steel EMPI side-flow exhaust. A Bergman Porsche-style fan kit ensures cool running.

Power is sent to the road by a replacement 4-speed manual transaxle from Rancho Transaxles in Fullerton, California including 3.88 ratio gears and a lightweight eight-dowel flywheel. Gear selection is via an EMPI Billet Plus shifter. Chassis upgrades include Sway-A-Away torsion axles, a Mendeolo Kfer bar, EMPI 2.5-inch drop spindles, and an Airkewld PRObuilt narrowed adjustable beam axle. Improved braking is delivered by an Airkewld 4-wheel disc brake conversion using Wilwood 2-piston calipers, braided steel lines and BAD-series cross-drilled rotors with 5x130 bolt pattern.

While the Beetle's many other updates and upgrades are far too extensive to list here completely, they include a locking fuel cap, rubber-trimmed running boards, an Airkewld PRObuilt shift linkage inspection plate, a third brake light added inside the vent below the rear window, LED headlights with halo turn signals and running lights, early-style fender-mounted turn signals, European-specification taillight lenses, chrome blade-style bumpers, and a Porsche space-saver spare. Rolling stock includes a set of staggered three-piece, 17-inch Airkewld PRObuilt "smoothie" wheels, mounting 205/40 front and 205/45 rear Kumho Ecsta radial tires. Ready to show and enjoy, this beautifully restored, built, and finished 1969 Volkswagen Beetle custom is an exciting find for any true enthusiast.

As-Is:

The Last Detail has described the above-mentioned vehicle to the best of our ability, however, as with all pre-owned automobiles, the condition is subjective, and recommend that the buyer inspect and test drive the vehicle before finalizing their purchase. The Last Detail shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with the vehicle at the buyer’s request prior to close of sale. No allowances or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness, imperfection, defect or damage. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle, and to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgement solely. It is the sole responsibility of the buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale. Any and all differences must be addressed prior to the time of sale. The Last Detail assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.

There are no mechanical guarantees, expressed or implied. We will not be responsible for buyer’s remorse or issues to said vehicle once it has left our premises. We are being realistic; most of the cars we sell are vintage and by their very nature will need TLC and some degree of attention sooner or later. Therefore, all vehicles are sold “AS IS”. However, extended warranty options are available on most vehicles. Please inquire if you are interested.
